POSTSEASON SCENARIOS
Hillsdale cannot fall below #5 in the G-MAC Tournament seeding...The Chargers have a two-game lead on Malone with two games to play, but the Chargers win the tiebreaker by virtue of their win over the Pioneers Dec. 6
The top four teams in the conference standings will host tournament quarterfinal games on Tuesday, March 5
Hillsdale can move into the #4 seed - earning a first-round home game - if it finishes this week with a better record than Findlay...The Chargers are currently one game behind the Oilers in the standings
The Chargers haven't hosted a conference tournament game since March 3, 2009
Kentucky Wesleyan currently sits in the #1 spot int he conference, but sits just one game ahead of both Cedarville and Walsh, so the #1 seed in next week's conference tournament is far from decided
